Boise July 2nd, 2009 - Aggravated Battery charges top the overnight arrests in the City of Boise

--------------------

Arrested: Orlando Figueroa, 30, Boise

Charges: Aggravated Battery (F), Probation violation charges

Boise Police responded to a fight call yesterday (July 1st) on the 2500 block of Marlette street at approximately 6:40 p.m. Witnesses tell Police that the suspect, later identified as Orlando Figueroa, had gotten into an argument with an adult female in the street in front of her home. Witnesses say the fight began when the suspect bumped into a child playing in the street with his car. The victim states that after a verbal confrontation with the suspect, the suspect put his car in reverse and intentionally ran over both of her feet knocking her to the ground. The suspect then placed the car in drive and fled the scene. Boise Police located the suspect in the immediate area. The victim was transported to the hospital for what appeared to be non-life threatening injuries at the time. Officers determined later that the suspect was currently on probation. The suspect was taken into custody and booked into the Ada County jail on the above listed charges.

Boise Police conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle at Capitol and Main early this morning (July 2nd) at approximately 1:40 a.m. The driver of the vehicle was known to have a suspended drivers license. The strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was present on the driver and she failed several field sobriety tests. At the jail the suspect, later identified as Stacie Hardin, blew a .17 and .18. A check through Ada County Records shows the suspect was convicted twice in the past 7 years for DUI making this DUI a Felony charge. The suspect was taken into custody and booked into the Ada County jail on the above listed charges.

Boise Police arrested Marilyn Lee on an outstanding felony warrant for Incest yesterday (July 1st) at her workplace in Boise at approximately 11:50 a.m. Her half brother, Brian L. Reed, who is a registered sex offender, was already in custody on other charges and has been served the warrant in jail.

The arrest warrants stems from an investigation that began when Idaho Probation and Parole Agents requested Boise Police to assist them with an ongoing case. The illegal activity, involving the two relatives, is alleged to have taken place over the last several months at various locations around Boise. That investigative information was forwarded to the Ada County Prosecutors. The Ada County Prosecuting Attorneys Office then filed the charges, which resulted in the felony warrants. Further information in this case is not available at this time.
